Tube Preamp Recommendations

Looking for used tube preamp recommendations to go with my Bel Canto EVO amp. Budget is 800-1000. Thank you for your suggestions.

The ss pre amps will not give you the 3d sound. The CJ pre amps would work well with it, the BAT VK30SE does not!

I have used this with the EVo and the SCD-777ES SACD. This works well for $250 IMHO.

Need features like remote and headphone? Need HQ construction and support. I can recommend Sonic Frontiers Line 1, but it's about $1200-1400. used. The older hybrid SFL-1 is also excellent for $600-750. used. Happy Hunting. Craig.
